ach, who knows.

i do occasionally respond to accusations(of many things) with an extremely obvious version of my apparent transgression... but then i am quite confrontational and do sometimes upset people.
maybe i should be less confrontational, maybe the people i meet respond more positively to aggresive resistance than the folks you meet.
yadda yadda, crab-fritters, etc.

if you do see presumed innocent(worth it on a rainy night in if its on telly, not worth a trip to the video shop), let me know if it makes a difference.

This thread makes me want to pick fights with strangers/pick fluff out of my belly button/pick flowers in the springtime (delete as applicable).

This thread is forever, and so is Rage. Definately a kick in the ass for Cyberland Utopia.

I misread that as "This thread is over" and was surprised that you'd finally said something that made sense. Then I checked it again. Shame.

Actually, I'm fascinated. Jacky Boy, in what sense exactly, using words making up sentences, do you feel that this has constituted a "kick in the ass for Cyberland Utopia"?

Oh come off it Housy, most of this thread is arguments, () it hardly makes a Utopia does it?

For Dupre and Haus :



No, really, i mean it.

And for the whole of Cyberland as it presently stands :

And I'm opening a telegram here, live on Barbevision, it's very exciting, the audience are trembling under their neon hair extentions: it's an official response from the High Chief Visigoth hirself, and it says -

Oh. It appears to read DON'T TRY TO SHUNT HIM INTO OUR SUBCULTURE COMMA SONNY JIM STOP TENEBROUS HUGGLES STOP

But it is written in the blood of a thousand virgin ravens, so it's smudgy.

See that? Arms House KNOWS ME.

Would it be unfair of me to point out that we had arguements before this thread was started, goldfish boy?

Nope, still makes my point relevant though. I'm not trying to outsmart you here Haus, it's pretty much accepted that your smarter than me.

Oh. It appears to read DON'T TRY TO SHUNT HIM INTO OUR SUBCULTURE COMMA SONNY JIM STOP TENEBROUS HUGGLES STOP

Don't worry, i'm not cool or wise enough to fit into that subculture......





























YET.



Good job this thread says PICS innit?

Jackson, your point was, and I quote, that this thread, and by extension Rage, was "Definately a kick in the ass for Cyberland Utopia". When asked to elucidate, you said that this thread involved arguments,and tus "hardly makes a Utopia ". Now,nobody else, except possibly Rage, suggested that it was a Utopia, or that, being a Utopia, it was without arguments. Therefore a) there is no argument that Barbelith is a Utopia for this thread's existence to kick in the pants and b) argument is not actually some strange, scary new element that Rage has introduced to Barbelith.

This is why people are worried about you reading Promethea or the Authority, you know - you absorb whatever most recently bellowed "look how cool I am!" into your ear, and immediately and uncritically accept its line on pretty much everything until the next thing comes along.

In this case, you looked at the pictures of the laydee, and ZUNG! your memory was wiped and replaced with a loop saying "Barbelith is indeed a Utopia of peace and order. Rage is a HOT CYBERBABE who is the incarnation of ERIS and is here to FUCK SHIT UP".

This thread has, as far as I can tell, shaken no foundations at all. It had some bitching, some limericks, a discussion of what constitutes misogynist language... pretty much business as usual. As such, your point remains as irrelevant as it was when you made it.

Once there was a time when the heavy, curlicued doors of Goth would swing wide to welcome hapless waifs and strays such as Jack Frost into their hallowed halls. Are those days no more?

Goths, like everyone else, have pulled up the rope ladder (made of Rapunzel's hair though it is) behind them, for fear that a thousand rampaging Burberry baseball caps will rent them asunder.

As a side note, did anyone ever think of Goths as frightening? Were they ever meant to be frightening?

Peter Murphy singing in the cage in the nightclub in The Hunger was kinda disturbing.

But I'm not sure Bauhaus were considered "goth" at the time.

The best thing about this thread for me is that while I read it, I'm thinking about how very very bad you all are and how I'm going to spank your red little bottoms. That's right, I'm going to take you over my knee and give you a Real Old Fashioned. You naughty little bastards.

'And Haus is really making a mockery of Jack Frost in Barbelith yet again, he's running away with the game so much that it doesn't even look like Jack will ever even score a goal.'

Haus : 50 Jack Frost : 0

This is why people are worried about you reading Promethea or the Authority, you know - you absorb whatever most recently bellowed "look how cool I am!" into your ear, and immediately and uncritically accept its line on pretty much everything until the next thing comes along.

Haus : 51 Jack Frost : 0

Haus your so good with words that even when your wrong your fucking right, you twat, and i can't be arsed to read another of your long posts so i give up again.....

.......no, no, wait a minute, Frost is breaking down the left wing, he's CUT INSIDE TWO DEFENDERS, AND ANOTHER ONE................CLEAR SIGHT ON GOAL............

In this case, you looked at the pictures of the laydee, and ZUNG! your memory was wiped and replaced with a loop saying "Barbelith is indeed a Utopia of peace and order. Rage is a HOT CYBERBABE who is the incarnation of ERIS and is here to FUCK SHIT UP".

By the time i'd got here the pictures of Rage had already been taken down.

Haus : 51 Jack Frost : 1

Only to cook him in black bean sauce.

Gambit's been acting like a bit of a wanker though, eh? Crucially, though, I don't think he's a ravening misogynist, just a thoughtless prick in misogynist's clothing. He made a lot of twatty comments, and got Anna to rise to his rather obvious bait. I'm glad she did. Someone needed to lay the smack down on his idiotic ass, and Anna does it better than most. The fact that he didn't feel it necessary to back down or apologise pissed me off more than anything. Still, maybe he thinks it's all worthwhile now that half of Barbelith thinks he is a ravening misogynist.

Is it too late mention that Rage started this topic off by describing everyone on here as dorks ?

I suppose it probably is, but still, on behalf of those of us who wore glasses at school, who maybe weren't all that good at sport, and who'd have ( conceivably ) struggled a bit to get a date for the senior prom, I dare say Rage pretty much had it coming, in terms of suggestions about three bean salads and going to the gym.
